18 Best Diners near Independence

“I don't usually order squash as a side dish but today I did and I loved the taste. Wish I knew how they cook it.“

“We have been coming to Hot Grillz Diner since we saw it on New Day Cleveland (way before the pandemic). Karen and crew are awesome and the food is fabulous. No matter what you decide to order I promise that you won't be disappointed. We have brought friends here who are now regular customers. Come in once and you will be back!“

“Great food,friendly waitress,great service ,differently come back“

“Charlie's was a dandy little diner we found during our recent trip to Cleveland. The first thing you notice is the very flashy looking exterior of their building which I thought looked awesome. The inside of the building is quite small with limited seating but was very well kept and clean. Their menu consists mainly of breakfast options and hot dog options. I went the hot dog route trying a Chili Dog and one plain with stadium mustard. The stadium mustard was just a dijon variation and was fine. Their chili was excellent with great flavour and just delicious on the dog. The dogs themselves were 100% beef and were the best part as it should be. Great flavour and a nice snap to them they were just stellar. The onion rings I got as a side I would rate as average. The service was pretty darn good for us as well. All in all a very good diner stop for us.“

“Came for a birthday party and can't say I'd be back. There were several problems. First off, I waited 40 minutes for a coke. Seems like everyone else got their alcohol though which also had a very long wait. The server Cici was awful to say the least. She couldn't get anything right. My husband ordered the rib dinner and i had the two meats and two sides (brisket and ribs). The ribs were very good, I would definitely order them again if I ever came back. But the brisket was absolutely awful. The toughest, driest piece of meat I've ever bitten, tasteless with no bark whatsoever. They were out of rib tips which I was honestly disappointed about but the ribs were bomb. They were moist yet tender cooked to perfection. The macaroni and cheese *and believe me I don't eat everybody's* was really really good. The greens had too much vinegar but were still enjoyable. The baked beans (Fire whoever made them immediately) literally took a can of bushes and added green peppers and onion. I ordered my 2 year old a smoked wing appetizer and some fries. WE GOT MY 2 YEAR OLDS FOOD AS WE WERE PACKING UP OURS, He literally ate my whole plate because he had no food. I ordered the garlic parm on the side and of course when they brought his wings it was covered in garlic parm. The fries were so full of salt they weren't edible but I got over that quickly. Still being very very generous I told the waitress I would be paying for my friend for his birthday. She didn't just charge my card for my best friends meal, but for everyone else at the table almost 300$. How do you make that kind of mistake. I believe it was intentional. After that I just ran out of there. The service however bad, still didn't overshadow that the food was really good. I just wouldn't order the brisket agian and definitely tell them no salt on your fries“

“Service was awesome. Food is delicious and affordable. I do recommend it“

“First time at this restaurant will be back for more club sandwiches“

“Fantastic food and service! Our go-to spot on the West side!“

“Amazing vibe with the old school diner vibes, even driving past you notice“

“Thankyou so much for the lovely gesture my daughter was chuffed to bits and loved every mouthful of your lovely rainbow cake❤️“

“I have been going to My Friends restaurant for over 30 yrs. It's always had the small diner atmosphere. Over the years the seating has become overly conjested & over crowded. The food, while good, is limited in option & very basic. While I've seen many servers come & go..most are attentive but when it's busy..the small congested dining area makes it harder to get attention. The restrooms are small & moderate. The appearance as a whole has never changed much over the years but remains one of the most popular diners on the westside. Especially due to their pie/cake selection that you won't see & taste anywhere on the westside but at My Friends.
And being one of the last 24 hrs restaurants..its worth going if for nothing..the ambience & setting when sitting at a table by the window.“

“This place is the best. Food is amazing and the waitress at night is really nice and professional and morning’s to 💕 I’ll be going back everyday“

“Love a good family owned place with good food and prices.“

“The food quality is the best and you get a lot of food for your money! The waitress, Destiny, is a sweetheart and always takes such good care of us!“

“This is an upscale classy diner with delicious good food, great service and really good prices. Classy decor is rare in a restaurant. Had a mushroom burger will try breakfast next trip. The coffee was fresh .My only disappointment is there only open till 2pm.“

“Great Corned Beef Dinty Moore sandwich..Generous portion..But I did not get my bag of chips🤔But I also didn’t come back & ask for them..Pretty nice staff. Would go back“

“1st we loved the setting, 2nd the food was great, 3rd the service was awesome even though they don't have servers.... defiantly wasn't your everyday normal Dennys that you go to, guess that's why they changed the name to the Den! Instead of Dennys.... can't wait to go back and try something else“

“Me encantan Denny,s sus platillos esguisitos tanto como para niños tienen variedad“
